Hi! My name is Cara, and I’m currently doing my postgraduate studies in MSc Digital Marketing. Before that, I studied BA (Hons) Graphic Design at Southampton Solent University. I’d love to combine both of these skills in my future career. Outside of uni, I’m really into sports. I play on the Solent basketball team, go to the gym, and love dancing, especially street dance and contemporary. Working out, along with reading and playing the piano, helps me recharge and stay focused on my studies.

International Development
Hello!
I'm Carolina (she/her), an international student from Portugal and Cape Verde. Previous to studying in London I was on a Gap Year, where I volunteered, travelled and I was able to understand what I wanted to study.
In the future, I want to work in the Public Policy sector, and maybe do some work with NGOs and charities.
I love dancing, checking out live music events, going out with friends, and any sort of terrible reality TV show.
Feel free to ask me questions about uni life, living abroad, or anything you feel uncertain about, and I will do my best to help!

Medicine
I am from Taiwan, and I am now a 4th-year MBBS student at Brunel Medical School. My special interests in medicine include Immunology and Cardiology.
I chose to study Medicine because I love science and art, and Medicine is the perfect combination of both. I particularly love the Brunel MBBS Team-Based Learning model (TBL) as it guides my learning journey as a medical student very well. The early placement opportunity since Year 1 has been the most rewarding learning experience for me.

Graduate Entry Medicine Programme
I’m a first-year Graduate Entry Medicine (GEM) student at King’s College London, based at the Portsmouth campus. My academic background is in Biomedical Science (BSc, University of Hull) and Women and Children’s Health (MSc, King’s College London). I’m passionate about maternal and reproductive health, clinical research, and tackling healthcare inequalities. Before starting medicine, I gained experience in paediatric healthcare and Women's health research, which deepened my commitment to becoming a compassionate and evidence-driven doctor. I’d love to share insights about the GEM course, transitioning from a bioscience degree, and life as a KCL Portsmouth student.

Callum
University of Essex
Modern Languages
I am a final-year student at the University of Essex's Colchester campus, so I have had a very long time here to come to know a lot of things about this place. Over my three years, I have had a broad range of experiences that university has to offer, from getting involved in sports and societies, to using the careers services, to completing a paid internship in a subject related to my degree.
Applying to university, I knew that I wanted to study modern languages, but didn't study a language at A-Level, which definitely threw a spanner into a lot of things. As a 16/17 year old, I just didn't think that far ahead in my life- which is normal. I am living proof that, to an extent, this does not need to be the end of your plans to go to uni.
As for me as an individual, I am interested in art and music- which I also make, and I also enjoy hiking, cycling and swimming on occassion. I'm also on the autistic spectrum.
After graduating this year, my plan is to go and do a year working in a Spanish school, and then hopefully come back home and do a course on TEFL, all of which the academic staff are supporting me to do.

Fleur
University of Essex
European Studies
Hello there, nice to meet you! My name is Fleur and I am studying European Studies at Essex. I love my course because it allows me to study a lot of different topics, such as history, politics, sustainability, philosophy, and even recently a bit of economics! While I'm not completely certain what I would like to do after leaving University, I know that I would like to contribute to making the world a better place, whether that be through working in social policy, a non-profit organisation, or an area contributing to reducing the climate crisis. Outside of university I am very interested in arts and crafts, and I love to curl up on a rainy day and crochet while listening to music, which is another hobby of mine. I love all things to do with music, playing musical instruments and listening to all different genres! I'm not incredibly sporty but I do enjoy going on walks in my beautiful hometown, along with swimming in pools and rivers (although the fish do scare me a bit). Archery is another interest of mine, and I've really enjoyed getting involved at the University Club!
